Such shares will be received by shareholders free of charge. Exchange of shares and allocation of shares as aforementioned will occur by the care of Euroclear Sweden AB without further action required from the Company’s shareholders.

The resolution is conditioned by Gryningskust, before the reverse share split, allocating shares to the shareholders whose number of shares are not equally divided by hundred (100).
